URL() in web2py is a function to create urls (usually related to web2py applications). If you have an url that is complete (such as http://www.gov-ideas.com/) you don't need to pass it to the URL function. tl;dr: use db.SuperObjectURL.URL.represent = lambda v, r: A(r.URL, _href=r.URL) On Monday, January 5, 2015 10:16:22 PM UTC+1, Alex Glaros wrote: > > What is controller "represent" syntax for creating a link to an external > url? > > "URL" is the name of the field that contains the url ( > http://www.gov-ideas.com/).
